all kididng aside I do actually have a picture of my toes,,, it was on a dive trip and I got a pedi right before the trip and had dive flags painted on my big toes... it was a big hit for the dive group, everyone took shots of them,,,LOL
You are too funny, I just looked in your gallery just to see if you had the nerve to put your toes shot there!!!

Gald you are up and running, well walking...
Last week when i was starting with a sore throat and was popping everything i could to not get sick, well guess who had a cold this weekend! Yup the grandson, and guess who has a cold now, yup GrandJo...

I was sad to find out that Skillet never got his free Mini and now I'll be wary of anybody named Sandy. Especially if they boast about cars owned or proximity to John Travolta.

I finally have to go to bed tonight (I stayed up late to get through the final push to page 132) but Hello everybody! And I'm sure I'll be back in the Morning.
Well good morning and welcome to the crazy side, Thyodin,

Yup, good kids except when trying to wake em up for school... then they're demon spawn. I swear they're abducted by space aliens during the night, and MY kids aren't brought back until later. Hmmmm... (Whatcha think, add a bit of Sci-Fi to this thread?!)
OK, Funky broken blaze (I think is actually called an interrupted blaze, we always referred to it as upside down exclamation mark) is a 6 yr old belgian/qh cross. He came here as a 4 month old, he's a PMU foal from Alberta, and was destined for the slaughter house and someone's dinner plate. Most of my horses were going to be steak... It was the only way I could get back into horses, buy 'em cheap as foals and start 'em myself (with the help of some friends).
No preggo piggies- all ladies are spayed, all gentlemen are neutered. (or as we tell 'em, they got Tutored). They're just, uh, healthy... yeah, that's it!

I'm trying to figure out how to get a pix of my mini pigs, my mini horses and my MINI Clubbie... heh heh heh...

Time for another favorite saying -

The courage of conviction,
the strength to persevere,
the hope that survives disappointment -
these are the keys to success.

Hang in there, not all employers are like what you have had the unfortunate luck to run into. It may not seem like it at the moment but the right job is out there, it really is.
KIKI you are such an inspiration - thank you for all you kind words... I agree, the unprofessional attitude is amazing..

if you ever come to the East coast let me know - i would like to meet up with you!

Good morning everybody and thanks for the Welcomes.

Yes, 'ola, I'm definitely glad I missed the feet pictures. And I was glad I was able to read your whole chase story in one sitting. I couldn't imagine waiting days to hear the ending of that!

And Will, I'm always amazed how small the world is. Like most people from Indiana, I had always hoped to escape. I'm originally from Northern Indiana and this is as far south as I've gotten. It's nice to see some people do make it further.

Oh sweetie, PLEASE don't put all of them in your clubbie just to get a pic. That would be ....well...Hilarious, actually, but a PITA to clean up when you're done!

Welcome, Thyodin!

His name is Reilly. He's somewhere between 12 and 14 and he's very patient and adorable and... he's my partner in crime.

Here's a pic of me. I got bored and was playing with photo booth when I took it. My hair's a mess in this shot... *cringe*

Don't worry too much about those aliens,,aka kids-- it is just the ages that they are, it all gets better. Well, after it gets alot worse,,,, hahahahahahahhaah whew, gotta get a grip here..

Personally I like broken blaze better than interrupted,, but I do love him, does he have a name? Does he trail ride? How many hands?

That can't be a bad hair day. I scare myself every morning when I look in the mirror!
Now, where's one with you in a MINI!

I'm always looking for good spots to put my funky smilies! Actually - I must admit...I "acquire" them from other threads, and I"ve started a "collection" with intent to share.
